retty strong well i don t know what happened but this thing kicked my butt big time anyway having said that being sick really takes away your desire for anything and i am a very active busy person and love getting up early in the morning and planning starting my day all those thoughts and desires go out the window when one is sick now i am back on track even though i was sick for 2 5 weeks it still took another week for me to feel close to 100 close when april appeared i think i hit 100 i love spring and all the anticipation and excitement that comes with it nice weather green trees flowers peeking all so good feeling better has put me in the mood to start all the things i have a new quilt i want to start granny square quilt a few embroidery patterns lined up a few cross stitch items started from the frosted pumpkin i am working on the woodland sampler a chart comes out a month just purchased the spring sampler which i will not start until i get through april of the frosted pumpkin hmmmm this may take a while today back to where this blog all began up above haha i worked on clue 1 of the mystery mitts i have tons of yarn tons but did not have what i needed for this project off the the lys to purchase cascade 220 sport which i purchased in three colorways one is teal which is what i am working with one is a fushia pink and the other a green heather had to change the fact that i don t own any sport weight yarn also purchased the size 4 dpn i only had them in metal and for me they are cumbersome to work with these knitters pride dreamz are 5 and a joy to work with now for what you have been waiting for the photo my supplies clue 1 done lots of texture easy to follow and so much fun i really like how these are turning out this is worked from the cuff up and you are only seeing half of the pattern the other half is on the other side of the needles if i did this magic loop you could probably see more of the pattern but it is quite nice the photo shows the color to be blue it is actually a teal color thanks for stopping by and updates are to follow look out for the frosted pumpkin cross stitch updates posted by vanessa at 8 59 pm no comments thursday

thank you posted by vanessa at 3 42 pm no comments labels crochet knitting needlework podcast spinning monday july 4 2011 knitting spinning and kitten i am back yes it has been a while i have been spending time cleaning and sprucing up the outside and the inside of our home the inside to me is a constant process because i love to paint i cannot paint a picture for the life of me or even draw not even a stick figure but i can paint walls till no tomorrow and i love it i have been in my home for 10 years and have painted the whole house over 3 times already and some already their 4th time and still painting love the fresh smell and new color i love color and i love a new look maybe too much good thing hubby doesn t mind he comes home and never knows what color a room will be works for me another thing that has been keeping me busy is this little guy this is junior he is 8 weeks old now it all started when my daughter went to the apf animal protective foundation and picked up a gorgeous kitten his name is jasper and he is adorable playful and full of personality i just love him i was jealous and two weeks later had to come home with my little one of course he was 6 weeks old when he came home with us neutered and has his shots but boy was he tiny i could hold him in the palm of my hand he was so quiet and not playful at all then two weeks went by and now he is into all his toys and playing and just loves to cuddle i think that is his favorite thing to do he purrs forever and ever sweet little boy here is a picture of my daughters kitten he is now 4 months old i really think he is a bengal tiger mix cat the vet thinks so as well is he not gorgeous here he is 3 months old okay so now on to some fibery goodness i have been spinning some coopworth fiber that i purchased last year it is a pound of fiber i split the batch in half and dyed in two different dye baths one with more black in it and the other a little lighter black yellow and a purplish color then i put each batch in a separate bag carded them with my hand carders doing this as i go and spun a ply of each batch and then plied them together here is the photo of the before and after dye process the top photo shows the original coopworth off the sheep and the bottom shows the darker of the dye baths this is 8 oz in this bowl here is the fiber all spun up and plied the larger skein has 160 yards and the smaller skein is 75 yards it is between a sport weight and dk weight yarn i was unsure how the yellow would do in this skein but i actually like the way it turned out now to keep on spinning and plying i have a way to go yesterday our family spent the day in saratoga ny just walking around and looking at all the little shops one of the indoor mini malls has a new soap shop with hand made soaps just opened two weeks ago what a nice surprise someday i will make my own but for now this is what i purchased at mcgillycuddy s so on the left is complexion oatmeal the middle is lavender vanilla oatmeal on the right is tea tree dermal all good for the skin cannot wait to try these the large celtic round soap is rosemary mint made with schoharie county milk soap smells divine next up went to common threads yarn shop in saratoga i have not been to the shop in a long time i went straight to the section where the sock yarn is and found this malabrigo i just adore this yarn i have to say it is one of my favorites to work with i have a pair of socks on the needle right now from a previous skein i purchased that is a darker green colorway so soft and cushy i plan to make something very pretty with this yarn a shawl or something this really needs to be shown off i love making socks but i think this deserves a better showing i love green and the golden rod color and all the orange which is brighter in person and all the different shadings of color makes this a fantastic colorway wish i could take a better photo of this i tried several times and this was the best i could get it has 440 yards and if my shawl is larger then i will add a yarn to it that i had spun myself for the edging that should compliment this yarn nicely read more posted by vanessa at 9 53 am 3 comments labels kittens knitting life spinning friday may 20 2011 happy feet and then not so happy as mentioned in the previous post i finished two out of the four pairs of socks that were in different stages of knitting the first pair are plain vanilla socks originally i used size 2 5 circular needles so that i could try making them on one circular needles and see how i liked them and how quick they were compared to dpn s double pointed needles which happen to be my favorite i don t know what it is but i love dpn s as i finished the socks on the circular my gauge was off sock was huge casted on 64 stitches and knitting in plain stockinette stitch created a wide fabric it took me a year but i finally ripped the whole thing out as i really love the yarn i picked up my 2 25 dpn and casted on 64 stitches ended up decreases down the foot to 60 stitches which was a much better fit for me i tend to think i have fat feet maybe i really do not i do have a size 8 foot though but i like a snug sock so without further ado plain vanilla socks using regia kaffe fassett design line here you can see the heel i picked up two extra stitches to prevent holes and it worked i really like how there are no holes in the side great technique these are pre blocking i have since blocked these and they are so cushy really love this yarn next up are the socks i made with yarn i won in a give away it was hand dyed and 100 wool not washable and no nylon but i wanted to make the infamous monkey socks this journey started like 2 or more years ago but i picked them up and finished them i made sure i worked on these with attention came out perfect but as i did soak them in the eucalan wash and let them air dry i did throw these two pairs in the dryer to fluff and finish drying big mistake these monkeys felted i was so upset with myself i usually knit socks that can be washed with sock yarn but i thought i would remember these would felt guess what i didn t remember i was so annoyed so now these will fit someone with a size 6 or 6 5 shoe size ugh i guess i will have to make more monkeys till then have a sweet wonderful weekend and enjoy the time with your family and friends time is so precious enjoy every moment posted by vanessa at 7 41 am 5 comments monday may 16 2011 so proud i have been super busy the past month or so and this is why my daughter was in our local newspaper she
